I would say wait some time unless you can build up ip quickly. I'd say thresh is borderline broken right now, but id just like to note that when Jayce came out, people thought he was an awful champion. But once some builds and lane location settles you realize the true strength. I haven't player Quinn first hand but it seems to me like it's going to be the same "top lane adc" we see out of Jayce. So I'm just thinking you might want to hold off and see how people do with them for the time being. I'm not saying it's going to be jayce all over again, I'm just saying its a possibility.

I don't think switching from mid to top should really differ too much. Either way you're not going to have a diving jayce, so you can still play to his strengths. If you're going to make a poke comp, I don't see why you need to send the jayce mid for the fact that his build is "better there"

He is sent mid for that build so that his goal isn't just make it through laning phase. In mid he can actually get kills by killing squishy mids or by roaming bot. In top against a bruiser he's not gonna get a kill once they have a giants belt.

He's better with a carry build than with a bruiser build. Playing top lane would force him to build bruiser, or get **** on, while playing mid lane would allow a Jayce to build as a carry.

Edit: ultimately you can build whoever, however you want. I was just saying what I, and a lot of other people, think about Jayce.

i agree he's better with a carry type build, but he also has a good range and an amazing ability to kite and farm for range so its not like he is completely useless if you were to go glass cannon/carry build. Its the same thing with having someone like a teemo top whose very squishy but can atleast hold onto the laning phase; and i think we can all agree teemo isnt as good of laner than jayce is.

not being as strong doesnt mean he is not viable. I'm not denying he's better in mid, I'm just saying you arent forced into one lane with one build

Teemo is a way better laner than jayce, he just doesnt have any real team fight presence, plus if you play teemo, and he is squishy, you are doing it wrong.

is anyone kind of getting tired of how the meta's been going?
start of season 3 was stack cleavers, then it was stack warmogs, now its stack blade of the rune king. its just getting annoying to have cycles of items like this.

The only one that was actually stackable was clever. I actually love the meta shifts
OP offensive item > OP defensive item > OP offensive item. I think botrk is pretty balanced noobs jus need to start building randuins instead of warmogs. Also as a jungle main it has made one of my favorite junglers, nocturne, super strong. Solo dragon with botrk losing no health.
Enter league of randuins/frozen heart.
